    TH400 going out in my 89 C2500

    Been thinking about this and I wasn't going to at first because I don't have the money right now. The thing is I won't have time to swap in the new transmission for a while and I'm planning on having this truck as long as it will last so I think overhauling/rebuilding it would be a good idea, I...

    New transmission secured! probably won’t update for a while until I have more time+money for the other things. Will say taking out the transmission with the engine is a whole world easier than dropping the transmission.

    Yeah I get that but its cheap. I figure worst comes to worst I could have rebuilt it but I don't have the time for that right now. Ill save up some more money while i'm looking for another one since the pick n pull one didn't work out.

    TH400 going out in my 89 C2500

    Currently 20 and pretty broke so 700R4 it is, did some research and looks like GM trucks with the long bed are the only ones with the same wheelbase, but I found one at my local pick n pull so looks like I have a day planned out ahead of me...

    Heater Hose Quick Disconnect to Barbed Fitting and Hose Clamp Swap/Fix

    Dunno if people are still looking at this/having this problem, but I just did this fix on my truck but used a 1/2 brass hose barb instead of 5/8, and it fits perfectly, no more leaks.

    TH400 going out in my 89 C2500

    Im going to preface this with I don't know that much about automatic transmissions so I'd like some input on what to do. The transmission in my 89 C2500 has recently started sounding like something is rattling around in it and it drives like there is too, so sounds like it's time for a new...
